Some of you may of heard of it already, but it's a new photo-sharing site. I've just signed up, and what drew me to it was the UI: it's all about the photos (and it's what Flickr should be).

It seems to be pretty stable so far, despite them getting a lot of traffic, and they do emphasise that you upload only your best shots. Minor quirks are the Flash uploader, which can be a bit buggy, but it seems like a great alternative to Flickr.

(and from a business perspective, they have a revenue model, which is always a plus).

What has changed with Flickr? I have noticed that a few of the long time users around here have moved on? Too much amateur stuff?

I am new to Flickr and, so far, have been really impressed with the community features. It seems like they are also very strong on the mobile integration side - native Apple tie in and now an Android app.

I also grabbed a smugmug account, for sharing original files with family and friends and to have a better print option.
